So I am getting the tint on my car and got a loan car. It is a new Maxima. I took it out for an extended tesdrive. It feels good but the CVT I have to get use to. It feels weird at shifting. Overall it is a good car and fast on straight line. Corners are a different story. I like how it pulls above 60. Nissan did a good job. I think it is shorter then the older one and maybe wider.

So here is some pictures.

I got to take one out yesterday for the first time. The CVT is improved over the Murano. Feels pretty good. It's not a bad ride, I agree it's not a G though.

Yes it is not a g have to agree. Those spots are mud spots. I don't know the e-brake pedal is actually just above the left foot. It is sticking out quite a bit. I hit my leg twice with that already.

Also I felt a viration in the seat when I floored it above 50. I was looking for a switch I thought it might be a switch for male/female. Coupld not find it.

I know the sales manager and he told me today. They,ve got 12 last month and sold 8 already. That's not bad.

When you put it in M. It still shifts 6k rpm itself. WTF. why is the M for then. It is not even redline. It redlines at 6500.

Manual mode in something that lacks gears

It cannot be a 4DSC without a manual mode.

I did not know about the shifting at 6K interesting.

Its still made in America so sqeeks,rattles, and vibrations are to be expected.
